The Bills and Vikings were moving the ball at will, the ball is just bouncing Denver's way turnover wise at the moment.

I think you mean to say the Broncos are playing with a lot of grit.

... oh god who cares, why are you moving the possibly good game to 1?

12/3

Broncos @ Texans moved to 1pm EST

Panthers @ Buccaneers moved to 4pm

The Houston Texans no longer have a game scheduled this season not at noon.

Yeah, a lot of advanced stats have the Broncos defense around the middle or middle-bottom of the pack. But Denver has had an unsustainable amount of turnover variance go in their favor.

Shows the power of turnovers.

speaking of exactly this topic, dubious chart incoming

Denver has indeed had the fumble luck so far. Green Bay is just having all kinds of luck.

Chargers have actually benefitted from opponents' drops more than almost anyone else.

(higher/bluer = more lucky for that team)

it's really just quantifying how teams have benefited from other teams screwing up more or less than average. I think you can quibble with the actual win probability added model but it's a good look at how teams have been more or less lucky on specific types of plays.

With my amateur eyes, they look like pretty much the same team as last year sans Hackett buffoonery. They've lost games but nothing has come close to resembling the hell of the Colts TNF game. Their ceiling is low but by god, they are kinda watchable and I am grateful.

Speaking of, Rodgers and Brady whining about how soft the league has become due to an increase in penalties designed to reduce injuries specifically created because of injuries to Rodgers and Brady is something I never expected but am in no way surprised about.

The only thing I miss from Brady's playing days are his temper tantrums over not getting a RTP flag whenever a defender got within 10 feet of him.
